. >>> in his new weekly address out today, president obama spoke about the state of the union proposal to raise the minimum wage. >> how do we make sure that hard work leads to a decent living? no one should work full time and raise their children in poverty. let's raise the minimum wage so it's a wage you can live on. >> joining me now is mark murray. a pleasure, good morning. >> good morning, alex. >> how has congress reacted to the minimum wage proposal? >> democrats like it, derubpy lanes don't and the prospects of its passage are probably slim to none. economists were also divided on the merits of raising the minimum wage. i can tell you this. the minimum wage and raising it is very popular in public opinion polls. republicans are a little on the defensive on this, and why president obama, if it's not going to pass congress this is a very important political tool. almost a political weapon he's using against republicans. >> in terms of priorities, how big a priorities, and what kind of timeline do we have to get something done? >> not that big of a priority. a few things for passa

key messages of his state of the union address. but friday's speech was the longest, and it was personal. [ cheers ] >> reporter: president obama went back to his hometown of chicago and called for an end to the violence. >> last year there were 443 murders with a firearm on the streets of this city. so that's the equivalent of a newtown every four months. >> reporter: mr. obama met with a group of at-risk male teens just before taking the stage. and in an uncharacteristic moment talked about the similarities between them. >> i had issues, too, when i was their age. i just had a -- an environment that was a little more forgiving. so when i screwed up, the con common sense -- the consequences weren't as high as when kids on the south side screw up. >> reporter: the president took a broader approach of solving the issue of gun violence saying the problem is rooted in economic inequalities and broken homes. on this point he got personal, too. >> don't get me wrong. as the son of a single mom who gave everything she had to raise me wit

for that. >> in his state of the union address, president obama himself admitted that these cuts were a really bad idea. what the president failed to mention is that the sequester was his idea, by his administration during the debt limit negotiations in 2011. >> clayton: republicans want to replace defense cuts with deeper cuts to domestic programs, but president obama thinks a balanced approach is better. >> i disagree with republicans who think we should do that making bigger cuts to education and job training, more medicare and social security benefits. and that would force our senior citizens and working families to bear the burden of deficit reduction and the wealthiest are asked to do nothing more. >> and congress is on recess for another eight days, but the sequester is set to take effect in 13 days, back to you in new york. thanks so much, peter. what's happening, seven newlead they've been found, but we won't be seeing them anytime soon. the department of justice says the pictures of his body after the 2011 raid at his compound are cla minor injuries and arrested. do you ever

in fact, i wonder why obama wasted so much time with susan rice who i don't think was qualified to be the secretary of state when you had john kerry, his whole career devoted to becoming an secretary of state. chuck hagel is a wonderful nomination, and the criticism of him, frankly, is silly. i mean, it's anti-semitism. people are really throwing that around so loosely. it's embarrassing to see accusations like that because once he said jewish lobby instead of israeli lobby. if you go back to irk miller's book, he said "israeli lobby" on many occasions, but the israeli lobby is a jewish lobby. i don't quite know what the debate is all about. i think it's going to just sort of slither away because it doesn't make a lot of sense. hagel is a sound man, has all the qualifications that you would need. i was very disappointed when obama made petraeus the cia direct e but petraeus took care of that himself and took himself out of the game by giving adultery a very bad name. in the process, but what was obama thinking when he took an active duty, four star general who had strong policy positi
